University of Nebraska extends Hispanic recruiting to younger kids
Tagged: NebraskaPosted on: May 14th, 2007“As Hispanic numbers rise across the state, particularly in towns where meatpacking plants attract immigrants, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln is working on ways to lure Hispanic high school graduates to the capital.
More than a third of Hispanic teenagers drop out of Nebraska high schools, says the Nebraska Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education. And only 40 percent of those who reach UNL are awarded a degree within six years.”
